Sometimes, the scriptures don't tell us everything we would like to know
about Jesus. For example, what did he look like? The scriptures don't tell
us. Because of this, we all have our own thoughts about Jesus. This is
important to help us feel closer to Jesus. We sometimes even imagine
additional things that he might have done, or probably did. When trying to
make a decision, we are often told to "think about what Jesus would do in
this situation."

Remember to read the scriptures often and carefully, so that you know what
is in them.
